Obviously the hard work in Renault brought some results. They stunned the visitors at the opening of IAA Frankfurt by showing four different electric concepts.

The smallest of the vehicles is Twizy Z.E. Concept. It is a ultra-compact 1+1 seater with zero emissions city car. The electric motor develops 20hp and it is capable to run the small car up to 47mph.

In the super-mini class Renault introduces Zoe Z.E. Concept. It is a full four seat car with 70kW motor for 100 mile range. Zoe Z.E. is equipped with enormous 21 inch wheels.

Fluence Z.E. Concept is all-new elegant five-seat Fluence saloon.

And last, but not least the Kangoo Z.E. Concept, which is a small van for commercial purposes.

There will be three options to re-fuel Renault's zero-emission vehicles:

  • Standard charge: takes between four and eight hours, via a charging socket situated on the outside of the vehicle.
  • Quick charge: in 20 minutes, using the same socket at specific charging points.
  • 'Quickdrop' system: three minutes at a rapid battery exchange station.
